Charakterystyka ucznia wybitnie zdolnego
2017
Artykuł dotyczy charakterystyki działań podejmowanych wobec ucznia wybitnie zdolnego. Pierwsza część artykułu porusza kwestie związane z identyfikacją zdolności oraz ich uwarunkowań. Dotyczy również czynników umożliwiających na możliwie szybkie rozpoznanie predyspozycji, które w przyszłości pozwolą na osiąganie ponadprzeciętnych wyników. Druga część artykułu charakteryzuje potrzeby ucznia zdolnego oraz trudności związane ze specyfiką pracy z tą grupą uczniów. Zawiera także opis czynności, które powinny być podjęte wobec ucznia zdolnego w procesie kształcenia.
Yliopisto-opiskelijoiden kokema stressi ja opiskelukuormituksesta palautuminen
2017
Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin Jyväskylän yliopiston toisen ja neljännen vuosikurssin opiskelijoiden kokemaa stressiä ja opiskelukuormituksesta palautumista. Tutkimus on osa Jyväskylän yliopiston Student Life -rahoitteista Onko hoppu? (opiskelijoiden Hyvinvointi, Opiskelusta Palautuminen ja Urahallintataidot) -opiskelijatutkimusta. Tavoitteenamme oli tarkastella Student Life -toimintaan osallistuneiden opiskelijoiden stressiä ja opiskelukuormituksesta palautumista. Tutkimus toteutettiin sähköisellä kyselylomakkeella, johon lähetettiin henkilökohtainen linkki sähköpostitse kaikille Jyväskylän yliopiston toisen ja neljännen vuosikurssin opiskelijoille joulukuussa 2016. Kyselyyn vastasi 990 opiske…
COMMUNITY DETECTION IN TRIPARTITE NETWORKS OF UNIVERSITY STUDENT MOBILITY FLOWS
2021
The purpose of this study is to explore how the multimode network approach can be used to analyse network patterns derived from student mobility flows. We define a tripartite network based on a three-mode data structure, consisting of Italian provinces of residence, universities and fields of study, with student exchanges representing the links between them. A comparison of algorithms for detecting communities from tripartite networks based on modularity optimization is provided, revealing relevant information about the phenomenon under analysis over time. The findings are applied to a real dataset containing micro-level longitudinal information on Italian university students’ careers.
Student mobility in higher education: Sicilian outflow network and chain migrations
2019
The most important student mobility (SM) flow in Italy is from the Southern to the Central-Northern regions, a phenomenon that has been magnified by an increasing number of outgoing students from Sicily over the last decade. In this paper, we rely upon micro-data of university enrollment and students' personal records for three cohorts of freshmen, in order to investigate preferential patterns of SM from Sicily toward universities in other regions. Our main goal is to reveal the existence of chain migrations, where students from a particular geographical area move towards a particular destination to follow other students that have previously moved. The paper provides aspects that are innova…
Coping with Uncertainty in an Agile Systems Development Course
2018
Uncertain and ambiguous environments are commonplace in information systems development (ISD) projects, and while different Agile frameworks welcome changes in organizational, technical, and business environments, the incurred uncertainty is known to negatively affect the development process and the quality of the final product. The effects of uncertainty on ISD projects have been studied in the past in real organizational contexts, but the effects of uncertainty on students in Agile systems development have received less attention from scholars. In this study, we measured the effects of experienced uncertainty on students’ performance in an Agile systems development course and how uncertai…
Hints of latent drivers investigating university student performance
2018
Job market, nowadays, asks for higher and higher skills and competences. Therefore, also the measurement and assessment of the university students performance are crucial issues for policy makers. Although the scientific literature provides several papers investigating the main determinants of university student performance, often results are very different, and they seem to hold just in very specific contexts. This paper aims to contribute to the international literature, focusing on the role of student specific characteristics, supporting the idea that unobservable variables (such as motivation, aptitudes or abilities) should be more investigated.
Classroom discussions: Possibilities and limitations for democratic classroom practices
2017
Are students offered possibilities to experience democratic practice in classrooms? Using an analysis of empirical data from classroom discussions in lower secondary school, this article identifies and explores two different types of classroom discussions which give students different positions: a conversation in which students are positioned as ‘poll respondents’, and a more deliberative conversation which positions students as learning debaters. The two forms of classroom discussions are discussed due to the way they give different meaning to democracy, and due to whether the student positions in the classrooms imply contribution to the subject matter and what is considered valuable knowl…
Multiple mini-interviews as a selection tool for initial teacher education admissions
2022
This study investigates the reliability of multiple mini interviews (MMIs) to select students for classroom and special education teacher programs (n = 418) using intraclass correlations and cross-classified multilevel modeling. The results indicated mostly small effects of clustering of applicants to different interviewers and five-station circuits. The largest variance components in the MMI total score were for applicants (63.3%) and measurement error (20.6%), while the variance component for the interviewer was relatively small (11.6–14.4%). The applicants' and interviewers' perceptions were positive. This study provides evidence for the use of MMIs as a reliable tool for initial teacher…
STUDENT GRAPHICAL INFORMATION LITERACY IN MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE
2017
Among the most important 21st century skills that every student needs are the ability to work with information. The key for implementing competency based approach to learning will be related to how students' ability to apply skills acquired in, for example, mathematics can be transferred to other subject contexts. Newest OECD PISA results presented in 2016 show a recurring tendency that in Latvia there is a small number of students whose performance is in accordance to the 5th and 6th level of the framework. These two levels represent students' ability to apply deep thinking skills in new learning contexts. It is necessary to analyze the causes of this situation in order to identify opportu…
Odmiana medialna języka a ustne wypowiedzi uczniów
2022
This article seeks to answer the question whether features of media language can be discerned in the utterances of the younger generation and, if so, which ones. The oral presentations performed during the secondary school final examinations (obtained from the recordings) were studied. They have never been analysed in this respect before. The presentations have, on the one hand, an official character and, on the other, are spontaneous as they are produced on an ad hoc and continuous basis, with no possibility of predicting their final shape. First, the article reviews the characterisation of media language by researchers working on the subject in order to establish a group of the most disti…
